Chapter 2 Wedding Tian Ruan gave up and said, "I am running away from my marriage."...
Tian Ruan was traveling through a Jinjiang BL novel titled "Wildfire Can't Be Extinguished". It mainly tells the story of the protagonists, the top and the bottom, who met and fell in love in high school, then separated for five years due to practical reasons, and reunited when they met again.
The character that Tian Ruan traveled through time to was Tian Yuan, a twenty-year-old boy who designed a plan to climb into the bed of the protagonist's adoptive father, and from then on he flew out of the chicken coop and turned into a phoenix, becoming a rich family's young father.
The young father took advantage of her husband's power to do whatever he wanted and achieved two things in his life:
One is to constantly create stumbling blocks for the protagonist, and to be the stick that separates the protagonist and the receiver.
Second, she constantly challenges her husband's tolerance by drinking, smoking, and playing mahjong, losing money continuously, and stealing group secrets and selling them to rivals.
All in all, the young father was a fool who was courting death. Finally, in the year when the protagonist finished the college entrance examination, he was killed because he was involved in a fight among wealthy families.
All in all, this young father's "good days" only lasted two years. A good hand of cards was played badly, which vividly illustrates what cannon fodder means.
Because he was just a cannon fodder, Tian Ruan only skimmed through Xiaoba's storyline. He only remembered the main plot and had forgotten all the specific details.
Now, Tian Ruan has become the cannon fodder dad and is at the scene of the wedding with Yu Jingmo, the head of the Yu family.
His acting was poor. When he looked up to meet Yu Jingmo's inquiring gaze, he lowered his head in panic, only facing Yu Jingmo with the whorl of hair on his head.
After washing, her hair became smooth and soft, covering her snow-white face, like a glutinous rice dumpling filled with sesame filling.
This glutinous rice ball is round and wants to escape.
Yu Jingmo held his hand to prevent him from escaping, and led him across the red carpet as if nothing had happened and came to the slightly higher stage.
This banquet hall is often used for weddings and is equipped with changing rooms, toilets and makeup rooms. However, when there are many guests, the restroom is easily full and you can only use the one outside.
"Where are you going?" The host stopped the newlyweds with a smile.
"Change your clothes." Yu Jingmo said in a calm voice.
The MC noticed that Tian Ruan's clothes were wet, and winked and said, "Wet body play."
"……no."
"Go ahead." The MC said considerately, "Is half an hour enough?"
“…”
Others could tell, but Tian Ruan, who had read all kinds of BL novels, understood immediately: "..."
Yu Jingmo's explanation was simple and old-fashioned: "If you keep talking nonsense, you'll have wasted your time today."
The MC almost burst into tears on the spot and laughed dryly: "Okay, okay."
Tian Ruan: This is the pressure from the boss...
The dressing room is not big, with two rows of wardrobes and a sofa and full-length mirror in the middle. There were more than a hundred pieces of clothing in the closet. Yu Jingmo picked out a dress that was similar to the one Tian Ruan was wearing, threw it on the sofa and said, "Change."
"Oh." Tian Ruan responded, and when he saw that Yu Jingmo didn't leave, he asked, "Take it off in front of you?"
Yu Jingmo paused for two seconds, then walked out.
Tian Ruan watched the door close, having been waiting for this moment - when he came in just now and saw the only window in the changing room, an idea suddenly occurred to him: he could tie all the clothes together and hang them out of the window.
As long as he leaves the main storyline, he will be safe.
He did it right away. He pulled out a bunch of soft clothes from the closet and tied them together like a twist. He estimated that the length was about twenty meters. He tied one end to the window and pulled it hard to make sure it was tight.
Looking down from the window, it should be the fifth floor, and the "rope" just touched the ground when it fell.
Tian Ruan took a deep breath, climbed up to the window, and carefully descended while pulling the "rope", one meter, two meters - stepping on the outer window of the next floor.
"Are you ready?" A low and deep voice came faintly.
Tian Ruan was shocked. Yu Jingmo didn’t leave?
Five seconds later, Tian Ruan tilted his head back and looked at the man leaning out of the window.
Yu Jingmo: "...What are you doing? Playing the role of a fugitive princess?"
Tian Ruan was desperate: "I'm running away from my marriage."
Yu Jingmo frowned his thick and long eyebrows slightly, as if he was puzzled. He looked down at Tian Ruan with eyes as cold as ice.
Tian Ruan shuddered, his heart and liver were trembling. Did he make this big guy angry? Will he be killed now?
Thinking of this, he opened his eyes wide because Yu Jingmo picked up the "rope" and pulled him back.
Tian Ruan struggled: "Don't pull me!"
Yu Jingmo: "Look down."
Tian Ruan turned his head and saw that the "rope" two meters away had broken and fell on the grass into a pile of expensive cloth.
Yu Jingmo laughed a rare laugh: "If you don't want to become disabled for life, just crawl back on your own."
Tian Ruan: “…………”
Tian Ruan crawled back in humiliation, and when he was holding onto the windowsill, he was grabbed by Yu Jingmo and lifted up. Tian Ruan's whole body felt light, and the feeling of weightlessness forced him to fall towards Yu Jingmo.
Yu Jingmo took it full. The young man was not heavy, but the smell of perfume on his clothes was a little strong, so he turned his face away.
The assistant peeked in at the door and made eye contact with Tian Ruan who was lying on Yu Jingmo's shoulder.
Tian Ruan: “…”
Assistant: "Sorry, please continue."
After saying this, he considerately closed the door for his boss and his young wife.
Tian Ruan hurriedly pushed Yu Jingmo away and said hesitantly, "Thank you."
"Can I change my clothes now?" Seeing his embarrassment, Yu Jingmo raised the corners of his lips slightly.
Tian Ruan dared not act rashly and nodded obediently.
"I'll give you three minutes." Yu Jingmo walked out the door.
Tian Ruan stayed there for more than ten seconds, his cheeks and neck slowly turned red, this was what it meant to lose the rice while trying to steal a chicken.
After changing his clothes, Tian Ruan stood in front of a full-length mirror. The person in the mirror was both strange and familiar. It was clearly his own face and body, but in this world, he was Tian Yuan.
There were two knocks on the door, and then Yu Jingmo walked in again. He took a look at Tian Ruan's clothes and seemed satisfied: "Let's go."
Tian Ruan walked beside him awkwardly. This time Yu Jingmo did not hold his hand, which made them seem less intimate - they were not close to begin with.
Even the original body had never been close to Yu Jingmo.
Yu Jingmo married his original body just to serve as a shield - for someone of Yu Jingmo's status, there were many beautiful women sent to him by his relatives and partners, but he remained unmoved, so when some people saw that he was not interested in women, they started to send him men.
Yu Jingmo was not interested in men. Even at banquets, he refused directly, which offended many people.
How can a businessman not be involved in alcohol and sex? Yu Jingmo, however, remained indifferent. There was a rumor in the business circle that he was face-blind and not good enough.
Just one month after the rumor, Yu Jingmo suddenly announced his marriage to an unknown 20-year-old young man.
There are a lot of people in this circle who like young girls. The ten-year age difference is not a big problem. The problem is that now that they have a serious partner, they can no longer send people to Yu Jingmo casually or inquire about him/her.
Therefore, the background of Tian Yuan, the marriage partner who suddenly appeared, was checked eight hundred times in just a few days. No matter how they checked, they found that he was an ordinary person. He may have dropped out of high school and had never attended college.
How can such a person be worthy of Yu Jingmo?
So that's what happened in the bathroom.
After Tian Ruan sorted out the causes and consequences, he became even more confused about his situation. The only thing he was sure of was that he could only survive if he broke away from the original plot.
Walking out of the backstage, the emcee called out on the stage: "Two newlyweds, please come and exchange rings."
Yu Jingmo glanced at Tian Ruan and asked, "Would you like to wear a ring?"
Tian Ruan asked in confusion: "Can I not wear it?"
"Then don't wear it." Yu Jingmo said to the MC, "Skip this step."
The MC naturally followed your wishes, "Then you two can just kiss each other."
“…”
Tian Ruan didn't want to exchange rings or kiss. He was only eighteen years old and married young, which was already a disadvantage... It seemed that it was not a big disadvantage if the object was Yu Jingmo.
As Tian Ruan was thinking this, his eyes met with a tall young man, who had his brows furrowed and a look of great unhappiness on his face.
——Anyone who suddenly has a new father who is only three years older than him would be unhappy.
Tian Ruan turned his face away in embarrassment. It was absolutely impossible for him to kiss Yu Jingmo. He believed that Yu Jingmo would not do that. After all, he had no feelings for his original self and everything was just an act.
At this time, Yu Jingmo grabbed his wrist and led him to the stage.
The guests laughed politely, mixed with half-hearted blessings. When Tian Ruan took a quick look, he saw a sea of heads. Everyone was dressed exquisitely and had a smile on their face, just like the NPCs in the game.
The emcee livened up the atmosphere: "Give me a kiss!"
At the right moment, soft piano music came from the corner, and many people in the audience raised their glasses to cheer for the party: "Mr. Yu, give me a kiss."
Only the table where the Yu family sat was silent, and they did not look happy.
"It's inappropriate." said a majestic and old voice.
"Grandpa, this is how marriages are." said the sweet-looking girl opposite.
After the girl finished speaking, she was pinched by her mother next to her. She yelled, "What are you doing? It's fine if you're unhappy about your uncle's marriage, but who are you showing your displeasure to? He can't see it anyway, so just be depressed by yourself."
"Tittt." The mother scolded softly, "Shut up."
Yu Ti snorted coldly and moved closer to Yu Shang, "Brother, you are not happy either?"
Yu Shang stared at the stage and said nothing.
Yu Ti said to herself, "I think this uncle is pretty good. He's young and can play with us. He's not as cold and unkind as my uncle."
Yu Shang: “…You just know how to play.”
On the stage, in order to relieve his nervousness, Tian Ruan simply lowered his head and stared at the floor, as if there were ten thousand yuan on the ground attracting him.
The MC kept making up stories about the two's love story, and finally concluded with one sentence: "Mr. Yu and Mr. Tian fell in love at first sight, fell in love at second sight, and decided to spend their lives together at third sight!"
Tian Ruan: “…” Can you talk nonsense a little more?
Tian Ruan asked Yu Jingmo: "Did he work for nothing today?"
Yu Jingmo: “Yeah.”
The host was so shocked on the spot, what a big mouth he had. But he still wanted to save the situation, so he put the microphone to Tian Ruan's mouth, "Mr. Tian, what do you think?"
Tian Ruan blinked, "I don't have any feelings."
The MC smiled and asked, "So what are your hopes for the future?"
Tian Ruan's eyes were firm: "Alive."
master of ceremonies:"……"
Everyone: “…”
Is being alive also a hope? It's so perfunctory.
The MC smiled so hard that his mouth almost split open. He turned the microphone to Yu Jingmo and said, "Mr. Yu, what are your expectations for the future?"
Yu Jingmo: "The branch's year-end turnover can reach 1 billion."
Everyone was speechless, especially the branch company bosses, who were petrified on the spot.
What the hell? It would be bad enough that he was late for the wedding, but he also treated the wedding as an annual party and openly criticized these "bosses" who appear to be glamorous on the surface but are actually in a mess?
MC: "Haha, Mr. Yu is really good at looking forward to it. Let's wait and see. Now, start your swearing kiss."
Yu Jingmo: "No need."
A wedding without rings, vows or kisses, what kind of wedding is that?
Everyone looked at Tian Ruan with even more contempt, and they knew in their hearts that in Yu Jingmo's eyes, Tian Yuan was just a figurehead.
Tian Ruan didn't know that the business world was like a battlefield, full of intrigues and deceptions. Hearing Yu Jingmo's words, he breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, but at this moment he felt a cold gaze beside him.
Tian Ruan felt that he should say something: "So that's it? Enjoy your meal and drinks, you're welcome."
Everyone: “…” Is this really a wedding?
Yu Jing stared at Tian Ruan with his dark eyes and said calmly, "Although I don't have a ring, I have a gift for you."
Tian Ruan: “?”
Yu Jingmo rolled up the sleeve of his left dress, revealing the snow-white cuffs of his shirt. The shirt was fastened with a pair of rose-shaped silver buttons, adding a touch of romance to this old-fashioned dress.
Yu Jingmo's fingers were slender with distinct joints, like cold jade. With the fingertips turning, he unbuttoned and rolled up his clothes in just a few seconds.
Tian Ruan stared at Yu Jingmo's fingers without blinking, his heart pounding.
The veins on the back of Yu Jingmo's wrists are winding like rivers on the earth, and his fingers are steep peaks, full of vigorous power.
Tian Ruan casually thought about how Yu Jingmo easily pulled him up a little when he was under the window, and it was the same...
A subtle sound attracted Tian Ruan's attention.
Three circles of sandalwood beads hung on Yu Jingmo's wrist, with a small mutton-fat jade pendant on top.
One side of the jade plaque is engraved with the zodiac, and the other side is engraved with the talisman.
Yu Jingmo took off the beads, lifted up Tian Ruan's right hand and put them on him.
The sandalwood still retains the warmth and scent of Yu Jingmo. The mutton-fat jade may look ordinary, but the market price of such clean and pure jade will not be low.
"This is for you." Yu Jingmo looked into Tian Ruan's eyes and said, "This is what my mother asked for from Lingshan Temple. It has the effect of warding off evil spirits and demons."
When saying the four words "ward off evil spirits and suppress demons", Yu Jingmo's tone had an elusive meaning.
Tian Ruan was a beat slow to react, his whole body trembled, and his hands shook uncontrollably twice.
Yu Jingmo held his hand tightly, as if he wanted to see through the meaning behind every expression on his face, "Why, are you scared?"
Tian Ruan tried to remain calm: "Mr. Yu, feudal superstition is not acceptable."
Yu Jingmo: “…”
Tian Ruan pulled his hand out and looked down at the bracelet. This was the first gift he had received in this world. He raised his face and smiled sincerely, "Thank you. I like it very much."
Yu Jingmo curled the corners of his lips, "Since you like it, then wear it every day."
Tian Ruan: “…Okay.”
Tian Ruan thought to himself, wait until I run away, and then I’ll see how you keep staring at me.
Suddenly, an old voice said solemnly, "Jingmo, how could you give that string of beads to someone else? Your mother asked for it, and you have worn it for more than 20 years."
Everyone at the table from the Yu family knew that this string of beads was of special significance. Yu Jingmo almost never took it off except when taking a bath. He had worn it for so many years. It was his mother who asked for it for him, and it was actually given to him without any hesitation.
Tian Ruan heard that she had worn it for more than 20 years, so she knew the importance of the beads and said, "I'll give it back to you."
Yu Jingmo didn't let go of his hand. His tone was calm and even, but full of indescribable pressure: "You wear it. From now on, it will be your amulet, and no one dares to do anything to you."
Tian Ruan was stunned. Was Yu Jingmo doing this because he was afraid that he would be bullied?
Yu Jingmo: "Since it's a shield, it should be tough."
Tian Ruan said expressionlessly, "Oh."
It turned out that this was a "shield" to give him, a golden medal of immunity from death, so as not to embarrass his "master" Yu Jingmo when he went out.
This string of beads is more useful than a ring. From now on, no one dares to look down on Tian Ruan - even if they look down on him in their hearts, they will be respectful to him on the surface.
These were not within Tian Ruan's consideration. He had no time to care about the NPC's thoughts. What was important was how to escape the plot from under Yu Jingmo's nose.
